Glastonbury 2017

Speaking on Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1 evening show, Ed said: “Yeah. I’m definitely the one that’s out of place on that list. But I think that’s an exciting thing. You know doing this festival for the first time like not even as a main headline but just playing it, it’s daunting.

"Like even though Foo Fighters have played it before, Foo Fighters are a band everyone assumes has headlined before because they’ve been so massive for so long.”

Sheeran continued: “I’m really really really excited. I’m actually more excited for this than I was for the Wembley Stadium shows because when you’re playing your own shows you’re not really winning anyone over because they've all parted with cash to buy a ticket so you’ve already won them over.

“But I think I’m going to be playing to a lot of people who might have heard some of my songs on the radio, but they’re Glastonbury goers, they’re not fans of me.”

Despite all this, Sheeran is showing no fear and said that he is not feeling nervous as his time at the top of the bill comes closer.

He said: “I don’t think it’s nerves that I’m feeling, I think I probably will be just before, but I’m just really really really excited for it. Knowing that there are people in the audience who possibly don’t even like my music at all and are just there to sort of see, that excites me.”
